Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Soak the Casings

    Soak the natural casings in cold water for at least 2 hours before using. This will make them pliable and easier to work with.

  2. 2

    Mix the Meat

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork shoulder and beef. Add the diced pork fatback for extra flavor and moisture.

Seasoning the Mixture

  1. 3

    Add Spices

    Add minced garlic, fennel seeds, crushed red pepper flakes, black pepper, salt, and paprika to the meat mixture. Pour in the red wine and mix thoroughly using your hands until all ingredients are well combined.

Stuffing the Sausages

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sausage Stuffer

    Fit a sausage stuffer with the soaked casings, ensuring there are no air pockets. Tie a knot at the end of the casing.

  2. 5

    Stuff the Mixture

    Carefully fill the casings with the meat mixture, being careful not to overstuff. Twist sausages at regular intervals to create individual links, and tie off the ends.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Cook the Cacciatorini

    You can grill, pan-fry, or bake the cacciatorini. For best results, grill them over medium heat until cooked through, about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally.
